Description
Agricultural spray adjuvants are generally used for increasing the efficiency of pesticides, insecticides and other agents that control or eliminate unwanted pests. These adjuvants are not themselves active in controlling or killing pests but act as a catalyst. These additives do so by modifying some property of the spray solution. This improves the ability of the pesticide to penetrate, target or protect the target organism. The ingredients in the spray usually are emulsifiers, oils and salts. These ingredients help provide the spray solution properties that help in spreading, penetration, droplet size or other characteristics.
